This is home of the “We’re Out Of Time” podcast where dives into the issues America can’t afford to ignore—from the fentanyl crisis and mental health to parenting, resilience, and hope. Hosted by addiction recovery expert Richard Taite, this podcast cuts through the noise with raw truth, real stories, and life-saving conversations. From former addicts and wellness experts to celebrities, athletes, musicians, and influencers, we ask the questions no one else will—educating, empowering, and demanding answers before it’s too late.
On this episode of We’re Out Of Time, Richard Taite sits down with sports and performance psychologist Dr. Mark Aoyagi to explore what truly separates elite performers from everyone else. From Olympic athletes to professional sports teams, Dr. Aoyagi has spent years helping high performers build confidence, resilience, and mental strength under pressure.
Together, they break down the psychology behind flow state, choking under pressure, fear of failure, confidence vs arrogance, and the mindset shifts that help people perform at their highest level. They also dive into the surprising overlap between elite athletes and addiction, explaining why perfectionism, anxiety, and obsession can drive both peak performance and self-destruction.
This conversation goes beyond sports — it’s about identity, purpose, pressure, and what happens when your self-worth becomes tied to performance.
